North Balti Zen Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 Still an occasional flake mixing in. Still hoping for a period of complete changeover before it shuts off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 Radar is looking a little more convective in the forming tail. And stuff up NW of there toward trixieville nice too. Quality winter look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Water vapor can be misleading at times because it doesn't necessarily show the moisture of the entire atmosphere.

ThreeRedheads Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 Still at 33. Not sure if we ever got below freezing. I'm satisfied that I got to see sleet and snow in October. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The precip is more spotty behind the little punch than the nice band heavy rain and mixed sleet I have right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solo2 Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 Unfortunately...the snow has just been too light to really amount to much here. Still pretty to look at it... Trying to keep things in perspective...it is October after all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
